(Genuine comment for all you doubting Thomas's) It seems that the model purchase is well in hand. That done perhaps the competition needs an organizer now so that all facets of the program progress uniformly. Someone who is part of the competition would be ideal. Someone to ensure everyone is on track with their Scanner build and fit out. Someone to decide what rules, course layout and the manner it will be judged and points awarded. I would like to nominate PeterT. He fits all the criteria and he has been instrumental in getting started the groundswell of Scannermania. Being part of the program gives him the best insight. All hail PeterT. Scannermania Coordinator
Hi Dave,
I must agree with you about Peter T being the Scannermania Coordinator, Peter would be the most qualified to run such an event with the help of the former Pylon Racing coordinator ( forgotten the guys name). For this to succeed we need members who are willing to travel to other clubs and compete, staying at Barclay field and flying on occasions will see the scanner racing fall away to nothing in a very short space of time. It will also encourage other clubs to visit WAM for competitions, saying that, any form of prize money would only encourage flyers to hot up their planes.
